Pharmacy
We operate a full inpatient pharmacy at Tayfour Campus including clinical assessment, IV preparation and medication distribution. Our vision is to be a premier hospital based pharmacy service in Ontario that is recognized regionally as a role model for quality pharmaceutical care.
Our pharmacists lead many clinical programs throughout the hospital - including renal dosing, kinetics for high risk medication, Medication Reconciliation, attending patient rounds, promoting the appropriate use of antimicrobial agents, and other drug utilization reviews to promote best practice and minimize the potential for drug-related problems. Our pharmacists have additional training in Specialized Mental Health and Geriatric medicine to enhance the care of patients in these specialized areas of practice.
Our pharmacy technicians are highly skilled and coordinate the distribution activities within our department and also help to manage the entire medication administration system. They practice within full scope including many tech-check-tech activities which supports our clinical pharmacists to focus on patient's medication needs.
